If you are sending SMS texts to your friends, family or colleagues and they contain internet or web address including IP and email addresses, and even a period or dot separating, regardless of, your words and numbers, they are automatically blocked and not going to be received by your waiting recipient. Cooler heads must prevail here especially if an important message is urgently being expected. IP version 6 address is fine. However, an IPv4 including localhost address (given automatically to every computers and network interfaces as their own alone designed for troubleshooting purposes), and your money in the billion figure using dot as separators would be blocked. If you send "local.business, naman.naman etcetera" or any words that made you use dot in between them, as part of the text, they will be blocked. There are some, that isn't blocked in this category. Like check.iclassed, some.ent, whatever.local etcetera, that is because they do not form any domain name at all
Not fine, solved, okay but the correct term, maybe, on IP version 4 security is, mitigated. Isn't it safer to say that way?
While working on our presentation slides to be delivered next week to one of the computing organization's cyber security event in the country, I connected my computer to the Internet to look for claims, that IP cannot provide 100% guaranteed security, at least for now, it may also be forever, particularly on matters that concerns politics -maybe the toughest concern ever, maybe national infrastructure too, high-profile individual and organizations and more.
They developed the Internet Protocol version 4 without considering security in the design [and the myth that the Internet protocols were designed for warfare environments, CPNI, 2008].
According to the report, in page 5, "As a result, any system built in the future according to the TCP/IP specifications might reincarnate security flaws that have already hit our communication systems in the past. Producing a secure TCP/IP implementation nowadays is a very difficult task partly because of no single document that can serve as a security roadmap for the protocols."
The document, Security Assessment of the Internet Protocol version 4, can be downloaded from CPNI Website which is also seconded by an Internet-Draft from the IETF Website, still fresh and submitted just a week ago.
